Rob Cross Wins Big with Consistent Scoring

Rob Cross stunned the world by beating Phil Taylor 7-2 in the 2018 World Final to claim the title on his debut.

He made the bold decision to pursue darts professionally in 2016, leaving his job as a full-time electrician.

His rise in darts is one of the sport’s most incredible stories.

Name: Rob Cross, Nickname: Voltage, Born: 21/09/1990, Place of Birth: Pembury, England.

He’s picked up multiple major titles, including the 2019 World Matchplay and back-to-back European Championships in 2019 and 2021.

His calm under pressure and relentless scoring have earned him a reputation as one of the sport’s most consistent and composed competitors.

Rob Cross has a highest PDC Ranking of 2 and uses 21.5g Target Signature Gen 1 darts.

He walkes on to the tune I Don’t Wanna Wait-David Guetta & OneRepublic.

In 2024, he claimed the Baltic Sea Open and then defeated Gerwyn Price 8-7 in a dramatic US Darts Masters final.

In 2025, he hit his first televised nine-darter during the Premier League semi-final against Nathan Aspinall.

Away from the oche, Rob is a family man, married to Georgia and raising four children.

Despite the fame, he’s remained grounded, often saying he’s still just a bloke from Hastings who got a lucky break.

With over 20 PDC titles and ten televised majors under his belt, Rob Cross has long since shed the “one-hit wonder” label.
